import keyword is not interpolated in leaf parameters file

[vchepkov]

import keyword is not interpolated and passed verbatim to pipeline if it is used in the leaf/final parameter file. i.e. if import keyword is used in AccountName_us-east-1.json, it is passed to pipeline, as-is, without interpolation. If it's used in global_us-east-1.json, for example, it is interpolated and merged into AccountName_us-east-1.json properly.

Have you had a chance to look into this? That's really makes it difficult to deploy imported values into different accounts. Thanks

Hi,

Using a potential workaround with a separate folder like "stage" with separate buildspec.yml and only one params/global.yml solves the issue but it's hard to work with and requires also updates in deployment_map.yml .

version: 0.2

env:
  variables:
    INFRASTRUCTURE_ROOT_DIR: 'stage'

phases:
  install:
    runtime-versions:
      python: 3.7
      nodejs: 10
  pre_build:
    commands:
      - cp -v ./template* $INFRASTRUCTURE_ROOT_DIR
      - cp -Rv ./src $INFRASTRUCTURE_ROOT_DIR      
      - cd $INFRASTRUCTURE_ROOT_DIR
      - aws s3 cp s3://$S3_BUCKET_NAME/adf-build/ adf-build/ --recursive --quiet
      - pip install -r adf-build/requirements.txt -q
      - python adf-build/generate_params.py
      - bash adf-build/helpers/package_transform.sh
      - cd ..
      - cp -v template_eu-north-1.yml $INFRASTRUCTURE_ROOT_DIR/template_eu-north-1.yml
artifacts: 
  # files: '**/*'
  files: 
    - '$INFRASTRUCTURE_ROOT_DIR/*'
    - '$INFRASTRUCTURE_ROOT_DIR/params/*.json'
    - '$INFRASTRUCTURE_ROOT_DIR/params/*.yml'
    - '$INFRASTRUCTURE_ROOT_DIR/src/*'

Thank you

Thanks for reporting and raising how this impacted.
Apologies that we didn't fix this issue earlier.

I've been looking into it and found the root cause.
I will open a PR shortly to get it fixed in the next minor release.
